Use the OnSelectedIndexChanged attribute of the <aspropDownList> element
to hook to your server-side event.

Eg:

In .aspx file:
....
<EditItemTemplate>
<aspropDownList id="ddl" runat=server
OnSelectedIndexChanged="SelectionChanged" />
<EditItemTemplate>
....

In code-behind file:

//C#
protected void SelectionChanged (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DropDownList d = (DropDownList)sender;
// Use d here
}

HTH.

Everyone,
I have a datagrid and it has a dropdownlist in the Edit mode.I want to
capture the selectedIndexChanged event of the dropdownlist. I tried
ItemCommand event and then realised that it is fired when a button is
clicked.Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance

Hi Shiva,

Yes, selectchanged is captured. But the SelectedItemIndex still remain
without change. Any Idea?

Did you assign the value in the Page_Load event ? maybe you didn't set the
routine in

if (!IsPostBack) {

}

so after postback the original value is re-apply before you read the value
again...
